Interlaboratory Study to Determine the Precision of the MIT Scan T2 for PCC Pavement Thickness, MLR 14-01, 2015

The T2 device utilizes a magnetic pulse induction technology to measure the distance from a sensor to a metal target. The objective of this project was to conduct an interlaboratory study (ASTM C802) to determine the precision of the test.Fifteen MIT Scan T2 gauges and fifteen operators performed testing on three reference platforms and nine pavement locations of varying thicknesses. The testing was conducted on October 29, 2014 at two sites near Ames, Iowa. Usable data was obtained from every operator at all locations.
